In a white coaster escorted by several police vehicles, Revilla arrived at the Philippine National Police (PNP) Custodial Center shortly before 1 p.m.

Revilla, with his co-accused and deputy chief of staff Richard Cambe, left at Camp Crame at around 7 a.m.

The court then entered a not guilty plea for Revilla.

His cellmate, Cambe, meanwhile, entered a not guilty plea, and so did the scam’s alleged mastermind Janet Lim- Napoles.

The schedule of visit for Revilla and fellow Senator Jinggoy Estrada is on Thursdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Despite the high-security entourage, Chief Superintendent Reuben Theodore Sindac, PNP Public Information Office chief, said that the Senator is not a flight risk.

Revilla was not even handcuffed when he was escorted out of the Custodial Center.
